Seriously? UA Tracker gave me exercise credits while sleeping

I'm just wondering about the accuracy of the UA Record Calorie Adjustment feature. This morning, I woke up and checked my diary before I even got out of bed. I noticed that I had been credited 141 calories, though I had not yet even moved. I know I'm an active sleeper with all my body repositioning and fidgeting but... As much as I love the extra calories -- they amounted to almost an entire Cadbury Cream Egg -- I know I didn't earn the calories. I don't usually eat back my exercise calories, but I am curious. Anyone else notice this issue?

Just curious.

You burn calories while sleeping too

You burn calories simply existing. That's what your BMR is - the amount of calories you burn in a coma, just by staying alive, breathing, digesting, healing, heart beating etc...

Yep! the fitbit does the same thing

That's just normal body functioning burning calories while you are living. It's not extra calories, just existing calories.

Lol. Then UA Tracker shouldn't be adding them. Glad I know!

Maybe aliens abducted you! or maybe you were sleep lunging!

@CassidyScaglione. Those were my thoughts exactly.
